מה השתנה באתונה??
כמעט כלום... לראשונה מאז סיאול 1988 אין שינוי משמעותי בתוכנית האולימפית... אף ענף חדש לא נוסף, והנשים הגיעו לשויון כמעט מוחלט (לפחות במספר הענפים) כשבאתונה הן ישתתפו ב-26 ענפים לעומת 27 של הגברים (חסר רק איגרוף כדי שהשויון יהיה מלא). את מחיר התוספת של 4 מקצועות בהיאבקות לנשים שילמו הגברים, שאיבדו 2 מקצועות בהאבקות (1 בסגנון חופשי ו-1 ביווני-רומי) ו-1 באיגרוף. בכדורגל וכדורמים לנשים הוגדל מספר הנבחרות ב-2 כ"א, אבל הוא עדיין נופל מהטורניר של הגברים... יש עוד החלפה של כמה מקצועות בשייט וסיוף... וזהו...
